XBOX Gamepass Ultimate conversion is back for £1

[meandu229]

Just fyi guys you dont need the £1 deal to do this. If you have already done the £1 thing it simple costs 1 month of GPU to convert the rest. I did this recently 3 years from brazil but I had already used the £1 deal so I just waited for GPU to expire, redeemed the gold then subscribed to GPU and it converted all my gold to GPU only it cost me £10.99 instead of £1

I've got Ultimate until 24/12 so hoping they keep the £1 offer going for a couple months so I can resubscribe!

Making sure you have live codes is more important as even if you renew at 10.99 it will convert all your live.

Ah OK - I guess I just need to wait till 24/12 for GPU to expire and I can add 36 months of live and then convert for £10.99.

Good to know, going to do this later and I've already used the £1 ultimate deal.
Was unsure if it would work with the 10.99£ option

Wait,hold on. So if you've got the upgrade to gamepass for a £1 thing. If you add a couple of years gold to your account you get gamepass ultimate for that whole period for £1?

No you need to stack live first then add gamepass. If you already have gamepass and add live it will do it on a ratio which isn't as good.

Oh no sorry, my gold runs out in March. So I could buy another gold now to add 12 months to that. Then do the £1 GPU deal. Would this really give me access to all the games for the next year for a quid? Seems crazy

Indeed a bargain loophole

 

[Kimi]

Sweet. I'll grab a couple years gold

 

[Kimi]

Just signed up, thanks for the heads up, I wouldn't be able to afford to get this and get stuck in otherwise.

 

[eyetrip]

Bah, i just signed up to £1 gpu recently without knowing this was a thing

So if I let it end the one month (disabling recurring billing) and then stock up on gold and resub, it will still offer me a better rate?

Doom Eternal added to Game Pass just now

Even if you have to pay the full £10.99 rate, it will still be cheaper.

So my live currently expires on 11/11/2022.

If I add another year of gold, taking me to 11/11/2023 will I not be able to do the GPU conversion bit?

I dont think it'll let you add another year as it won't let you stack beyond 3 years.

 

[IronSpider]

I share live with my son, if I upgrade I presume I can still share with him and both play the games available?

Ah good point. Cheers.

Yes although I had issues at first but resolved it in the end. First thing to try if secondary accounts on the home console can't access gamepass games is to do a full shutdown (not just turn off), if that fails remove your account and add it again (set as home xbox).

For some reason my account had to be signed in for other accounts to be able to play games but now the person I share with can download and install games on his account while I'm using mine no problem.
